Constipation
I tried the water/juice thing and that doesnt work on Lexi.I have been giving her bran cereal w/ fruit and I have pears I am giving her.I was going to do the karo, but I worry about her teeth.I hate giving baby's laxatives.I hope as she grows older shell grow into her intestines.We are still battling the eczema problem.I have everything for that lol.

Try Stool Softner recommended by specialists, it is the most natural remedy with no side effects. It is just fiber and help put the all system in place.

Hi Lexi,

You should try prune juice. My 5 month old girl would go 3 to 4 days with out going. I was giving the same things you were trying but none of them really worked. Until I gave her prune juice by sunsweet brand. Than she would go like crazy. Hope's it works for you too.

You can also try prune baby food by gerber. I give that to my son and he goes nicely after that

How old is Lexi? According to my pedi the Karo only works when they are really young like under a year after that it's really not effective/ My son is on Mirilax, I mix a capful with 8 oz of juice, usually apple juice. Unless she is used to a lot of fiber uping it can cause constipation. Apples with skin are good to, lots of water
